    it all depends on how much he wants to spend, getting the thing running again would only require a new motor, i've heard the m14's have fairly good range and accuracy out of the box, so if he's happy enough with it as is, then i wouldn't bother touching the barrel or hopup.

    As KD said just get a motor for it, Myself and SniperSight got new M14's and the range is BRILLIANT out of the box, all the guys in G-Tac yesterday were well impressed as were we.
    Mine is the M14 Socom and his is the standard long barrell M14.

    Install new shims and busings . It will prolong live of gearbox and may increase rof.
